iPhone 6 Plus Volume

My new 128gb 6 plus is awful , I can't hear a thing the other person is saying to me , very dissapointed asa never had this problem with my other 1 phones in the past !!!!!!!!!

Hi guys, no issue on my iPhone 6+, the volume is perfect.

Alex

Just went to the store and got my replacement iPhone 6+, the earpiece in this one is much better than my other one, if you're having earpiece problems, or any other major problems, I suggest you go through a warranty issue with Apple or return it to the store you got it from and get a different one, good luck to you all :-)

I recently purchased an iPhone 6 Plus and I noticed that the volume when on a call is very, very low. I turned the volume all the way up and there is still no improvement. I already tried all the mentioned fix but no luck. I'm going to return this to Apple. Not worth at all.

Same issue. Took the phone to the Genius Bar at the Apple Store. They replaced the receiver at no charge. It took about 30 minutes total and it works just fine. I would encourage you to not accept a poor receipt quality with the phone to the ear. They can fix it.

Hi, I'm trying to work out if I have an in-call speaker problem or not and sawadee2 talks of a bottom speaker on the iphone 6?

How many speakers does the iPhone 6 have and where are they located on the iPhone?

Also, how many mics are there and where are they located?

It may have sounded dumb but it works. I was keeping mine as extra protection but when I removed it. Everything about the volume of the phone worked perfectl. Thanks much

I have a 128g 6+ at 8.1 release with incoming call Volume problem , and Mic outgoing sound quality complaints...

Many times the caller on the other end is complaining they cant hear me (Im in a tin can, or sound like i am on the other side of the room)

If I switch to speaker phone the sound is better...

Apple Time to get another IOS update out.

I Was having the same issue but what I was doing was keeping the screen protector that came with the phone. I did not peel it off and on removing the entire thing from back to front the issue was fixed. If that doesn't work just call apple suppor. They'll probably tell you to back up your files and restore the phone from settings>General>Reset from the very bottom and rest all settings.

If that doesn't work then visit your local Apple store and they'll issue you a new one.

Really enough with these post!

Do you honestly think everyone here is that stupid to not remove the plastic that clearly

covers the receiver?

tthis is where people receive information and change takes place. Someone said that same thing earlier and it was what fixed it for me so I'm testifying of my personal experience which matched someine else's. Mine wasn't covering the receiver I clipped that part off and kept the back and from plastic/screen protector but by removing everything my low volume phone instantly operated the way it should have.

Its clear that this is not your case so follow the next two steps suggested as there was three but u only addressed one.

Unfortunately, I am having the same problem with low volume on my iPhone 6 Plus that everyone on this forum is complaining about. Based on what I am reading this may prove to be a major problem with these phones. Had I known about it before purchasing the 6 Plus, I probably would not have bought it. It is ridiculous. I have never had this problem with any of my previous iPhones and now I am not sure what to do. From what I have read on this forum nothing seems to really help. Wondering if I will have to go back to a 5 model or simply buy a Samsung or something else. I really can't live with a phone that doesn't have high volume at the earpiece. I have a call in to Apple-Care right now and will see what happens. To be continued....

I have been "reading the mail" on this issue for a while. I have had my 6 Plus for 13 days and notice the first day that the earpiece speaker was low.

I have to have it up full the hear normally with a normal call. But if I am in a noisy area or the caller has low volume then I have no option to turn up.

I and my wife had iPhone 4S units and both had set volume to midpoint or one line up. Had these phones for 3 years and had no concern about volume. Never even gave it a thought.. But the 6Plus volume is noticeably lower.

My wife has a 6 and I had not heard a complaint from her concerning this but when I went to check the volume setting I found it set to max. So wondering if this is also an issue with the 6.... Seems it should be as the speaker and audio chips are supposed to be the same.. In any case today is my last day to give the phones back (I purchased both outright so I have no contract with Verizon).

Verizon level 2 tech service made an appointment for me with the Apple Store "Wunderbar" so will see what happens.

Exactly what happened to me as well. I admit it's stupid, but it's worth mentioning. I read many complains and tried restarting, turning on hearing aids mode, and eventually went with online apple tech support. When reminded of peeliby off the protector I was shocked this could happen to me. We all make mistakes once in a while and feel stupid about them, but that's how we learn.

Yes indeed.

WHo would have thought that by not removing the protector the volume would have been affected the way it did. I've kept protectors on in the past without these issues but I guess there's a first in everything. Happy it worked for you also; enjoy your phone now. My iPhone is working fine and loving it.
